A Play of Violence

“Leave the fruit, and I’ll let you live. If you do, I’ll let you live.”

The young man’s overly arrogant proposal.

“I’m not going to let you get away with it. This is something that we risked our lives to get. You can’t just give it to us and expect us to give it to you.”

“That’s right! And who the hell do you think you are to let me go home alive? You are one person, but there are four of us!”

Tumor and Seinu reflexively respond to the overly arrogant proposal.

“You’re both right. You’re right; we don’t have the right to comply with your demands.”

“We’re willing to give it up if you’re willing to pay for it, but we can’t give it away for free. We have a life of our own.”

Kama and Taysis look a bit calmer than the two, but their expressions are firm, and it’s easy to see that they’re trying to suppress their displeasure with the young man.

“I’m sure you’ll be able to figure out what’s important to you.”

With his arms crossed, the young man tilted his head as he looked at the four of them with a curious expression.

With those words, the four of them lost their patience.

“Kama, Taysis. What this kid is doing is banditry. Even if we have to kill him, it won’t work against us.”

“I warned you. If you want to hate me, hate yourself for not being able to judge the situation properly.”

“We don’t want to give away the fruits of our labor. I’m sorry, but we’re going to fight.”

“We’ll try not to kill you if we can help it. Of course, we’ll hand you over to the guild as bandits afterward.”

The four of them quickly set up their formation.

Kama holds a shield on the front line, and Seinu and Taysis are behind..

Tumor hides in the trees for easy sniping.

The young man let out a deep sigh as he watched the four of them take up their battle positions.

”Huh… I gave you a choice chance, didn’t I?”

The young man unclasped his crossed arms and stood with a lightly bent natural body.

Suddenly, a shimmering crimson light envelops the young man’s body.

━━━You have a crimson soul.━━━

The voice echoes around me, even though it is in an open space.

━━━I want you because you exist.━━━

“Tsk! Summoning! Everyone, attack while it’s still chanting!”

Kama quickly closes the distance to prevent the young man from chanting.

━━━Stay close to my soul.━━━

“I’m going to start chanting too! I’m going to chant, too! I’m going to give you a big, fat one!”

“All right! I’ll take care of his interference! <Quick arrows>!”

━━━Let the avenger return to the ashes.━━━

“You’re a little short on time, aren’t you? <Quick arrows>!”

Tumor’s quick arrows and Kama’s rock-splitting blow, the Go-Ha-Zan, both approaching at once, catch the young man.

“What?”

━━━I couldn’t do anything and penetrated the youth’s body.

“Advent Advent <Red Takahime Koyoki Blaze Falcon>.”

The chanting of a young man who hesitated to attack the two is completed with a slight bow.

The crimson light that enveloped the young man turned into a blazing fire, which formed a human shape.

What emerged was a girl with a scarlet body, crimson hair and eyes, and beautiful, sharp wings.

“Spirit…?”

“Everyone, get back! <Death Inferno>!”

The three of them were surprised to find out that it was a spirit that had been summoned, but they quickly jumped back in response to Seinu’s voice.

“I don’t think it’s going to be very effective against that spirit, but what about you, the surgeon?”

Death Inferno, the highest level of flame magic that Seinu is good at.

It is a magic that radiates high-temperature flames that can melt even steel over a wide area in front of the magician.

It has a drawback that it takes some time to chant, but it is simple yet powerful, and it is very difficult to deal with or avoid once the chanting is complete.

The flames of hell envelop the young man and the spirit girl.

“Poof. It wasn’t a big deal for me to sell flights from myself.”

“Se, Seinu. I told you to try not to kill as much as possible.”

“No, he’s a strong man who can easily avoid me and Tumor’s attacks. If I didn’t try to kill him, he would have killed me. Seine is not wrong.”

“That’s right. Well, I’m sorry for any further trouble. Quickly ━━”

The expression of Seinu who proudly snorts, no, the expression of everyone who was convinced of victory freezes.

This is because the flame, which had burned to the surrounding trees and continued to burn with the force that could cause a forest fire, began to converge to one point..

At the center of the hellfire, which was extinguished in a few moments, was an unharmed young man and a spirit girl.

The girl landed quietly and asked the young man while looking at the four of them.

“I’m sure you can understand. There’s no reason to hold back, right?”

In her gaze, you can sense the hatred towards those who have destroyed the nature of the forest.

“He spoke…? I’m sure you’ll be able to figure out what’s going on. No, a top-tier spirit?”

“So what’s the problem? Humans. They destroyed our dwelling and tried to take the lives of our family members. Don’t think you’ll make it out alive.”

The pressure from the spirit girl is far greater than the pressure from the jewel tree.

“Haaah! This is impossible! Put out a transition stone.”

Kama, who sensed an overwhelming difference in ability, faces the spirit girl and instructs her to withdraw while slowly retreating..

Tumor, who normally plays the role of taking Point, and Seinu, the rearguard, also take a position to protect Tasis, who has a transition stone..

The transfer stone is an item that transmits magic power and instantly transfers to a registered location.

In proportion to its convenience, the price is very high, and even A-rank party members are hesitant to buy it.

(It was a good thing we pushed ourselves to buy it. That spirit is no match for us. We should report it to the guild as soon as we get back.)

“Yes, sir! Everyone gather over here! Transfer.”

Tethys pulls out a shifting stone from storage, and it begins to glow.━━

“I’m not letting you go.”

━━━I’m not going to let you go…” – At that moment, an arm sprouted from Taysis’ chest.

“What?”

Tasis whose arm is pulled out at once and collapses.

“Kofu … Gopo …”

Her consciousness fell into deep darkness, feeling a plethora of blood flowing out.

“Did you have it?. Those who come to this area often have a transition stone collection… I was wary, and the answer was correct. “

The young man’s right arm, dyed red with Taysis blood, was holding the transfer stone she had tried to activate.

” Taysis…?”

“Oh, come on, are you kidding me?”

“Oh… Oh…”

The three of them froze at the sight of their companion, who had turned into a wreck in an instant.

And young people and girls are not sweet enough to miss that big gap.

“I was very proud to scatter the flames, but do you know the pain of being burned alive?”

“Oh…, no…!”

A spirit girl grabs the stunned Seinu’s head and lifts it lightly.

“I will carve that suffering into the core of my soul… Repent, regret, and taste for yourself what you did, then die.”

“Hey, aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!”

“No, no―――”

The flame created by the spirit girl wraps only Seinu.

Seinu has the attributes that he is good at and has enough flame resistance to negate most flame magic…

But there’s no way you can resist the fire magic of a top-tier spirit like her.

“Ahhhh Nooo !!!”

━━━No, I’m afraid.

“Ahhhhhhh…” I’m… “Gama, Daz-ge-de…”

Because of its flame resistance.

If you go crazy and burn your body alive, you will suffer better pain…

“Wha…?” “Wha…?

She was carbonized to the point where she could barely be judged to be a human being, and she was finally released from her suffering…

“Say… Nu…”

“Huh … wow ah ah ah!”

Tumor, who had witnessed the horrific death of the two, ran away half-crazed.

It’s a sprint that wants to leave this place as soon as possible.

There is no shred of the usual precision in his movements, he is just moving his legs straight and running.

“Hey, don’t scream mercilessly. I was ready to kill me a while ago, but aren’t I ready to die?”

It’s not only the party but also the guild to which the young man belongs, the Tumor is the unquestionable number one in terms of speed, and the young man runs alongside him without even losing his breath.

“Don’t come! Don’t come!”

The young man, who was unable to make normal judgments, wielded his dagger, normally used only as a check or self-defense.

The young man easily hesitates the inadvertently protruding dagger and entangles his arm…

“I’m away!”

Tumor is also desperately rampaging but can not release the restraint.

This is a great way to make sure that you don’t get caught in the middle of the action.

On the contrary, Tumor’s body is gradually being pulled away from the ground.

“Ah…gah…gah…gah…”

Tumor’s breathing is getting weaker and weaker.

“Kahiu… gee…”

The young man lifts him, watching Tumor’s suffering with cold eyes, and puts his strength into his bloodied arms.

The young man lifted him and put pressure on his bloodied arm, and with a raw “gocak” sound, Tumor’s nearly thirty years of life came to an end.

“…Tumor.”

Kama, who was left behind, sat stunned.

She looked up at the young man who had killed Tumor and walked back to her and asked him.

“Why did you kill them? Seine and Tumor had lost their will to fight.”

“If the Jewel Trees had lost their will to fight, would you have stopped them from killing?”

Instead of Kama who is stuck in the answer, the spirit girl who moved next to the young man answers.

“There is no possibility. The jewel tree is mild-mannered… The fact that I was fighting the Jewel Tree means that these guys started first… The purpose is the fruit of the jewel tree, so even if the jewel tree lost its fighting spirit and escaped, it wouldn’t stop the attack until it was defeated and the fruit was obtained.”

“…What’s wrong with defeating a demon?”

Kama asks more questions, including anger in giving up…

“After all, this world is a weak and strong food… I’m not going to complain that you killed Jewel Tree.”

“Then…!”

“But if it even indirectly affects me, my family, or where we live, that’s a different story. As I said before, if you bring back the fruit, there will be many adventurers who will come looking for it. Adventurers will stop at nothing to achieve their goals. There’s a good chance we’ll be harmed.”

The young man continued as he met Kama’s weak glare head-on.

I’ve given you the option to leave alive. They didn’t even listen to our suggestions, much less try to kill us. We were stronger than them, so we didn’t want to die, so we let them go, that’s not going to work.

The young man glared at Kama as if looking into his eyes.

Unable to look directly into his eyes, Kama diverts his gaze and shuts up…

“When it gets inconvenient, you shut up… It’s okay. I’ll send it to my friends right away.”

The spirit girl produces a flame in her right hand that she points at Kama.

Perhaps Kama has given up on her life, she closes her eyes with a drooping argument…

“If you don’t resist, I’ll kill you without suffering.. ···goodbye.”

The super-heated flames produced by the spirit girl.

In an instant, it enveloped Kama and turned her into charcoal without leaving even a bone.

The A-rank party (Demon Sword Without Will) entered the Demon Mist Forest’s depths to explore.

They, too, could not return from the unknown realm.
